Abstract
The cherry red-coloured solid state product obtained by the reaction ofcis-σ diaquo Co (III) triethylene tetramine with ferrocyanide was examined by thermogravimetric, infrared and Mössbauer techniques. Its electronic spectrum in aqueous medium was interpreted to consist of charge transfer IT transition at 440 nm and a ligand field transition around 330 nm. The kinetics of formation of this 1:1 product in solution was also studied.
